06-30 19:06 <> : Hello
06-30 23:14 <-> : Really thinking back and appreciating how much a2p was a lego connector to so many other artists for me. Even more importantly was this chance to hear from people in the chat and recognize that we all mostly shared a sense of uncertainty and wonder about having this chance to swap work on a new platform. Big community vibes! Very special project and I'm so glad we get to hear folks talk in more depth this week! Cyborg hugs....lee

07-03 01:51 <> : I became aware of FF via Casey Reas Twitter feed. With my curiosity piqued, I had to see what this new medium for creative expression and ownership was about. FF and Bitmark (and Autonomy) fed my habit of learning by doing and sparked a deep habit of collecting art on the blockchain. Looking forward to FF2.

07-06 15:05 <> : GM!!! what a great exhibition
07-06 16:26 <> : GM!!!
07-06 16:26 <> : Obviously a positive change :>
07-06 20:42 <> : web3 has definitely grown into it's own in the past 2-3 years, offering a lot more security, autonomy and incredible platforms. But along with that has come numerous scams, countless $$$ and NFTs stolen or lost and a complete sense of grift to anyone outside of it. Don't get me started on gas fees, please. Until this is remedied, web3 will not grow.
07-06 21:06 <> : Hi all, long time FF lurker until recently when I purchased a Lee Mullican edition for my collection. Several other FF projects are on my wishlist but those will come.
07-06 21:48 <> : gmgm patiently waiting for ff 2.0
07-06 21:52 <> : hey everyone.

07-10 00:27 <> : hi
07-10 15:03 <> : hello everyone!
07-10 16:14 <> : Hi all
07-10 23:19 <> : Gm! Excited for the N=12 exhibtion upcoming
07-10 23:21 <> : hi hi - fun to see all the chat here
07-11 00:35 <> : Net positive. As a photographer who understands the impact of technology on storytelling, web3 art makes complete sense in the ever evolving world of art.
07-12 06:26 <> : Two more days to N=12!
07-12 20:41 <> : GM all
07-12 20:43 <> : personally, net positive. Increased my art exposure 1000x
07-12 20:55 <> : gm gm
07-12 22:28 <> : gm! Def a net positive -- made it so much easier to engage with and collect
07-12 22:28 <> : gm! definitely a net positive because it made it so much easier to engage and gave so many more artists a pathway to create
07-12 22:31 <> : Oops -- sorry for the double post. Looks like it got eaten on the first post
07-13 01:54 <> : This question is best answered by people who have traveresed Web3. One of the many positive aspects of blockchain is the potential for a ramp onto the stage, the expansion of the concept on what a 'stage' is, and a sentinel to preserve all artworks equally. A preservative for the work of the introverts, the recluse, and the misunderstood; who don’t speak the common language and are unable to rise above the noise. One day the frequency of an explorer may harmonize with this art, which can then finally be deciphered.Congrats&♡2FF
07-13 07:29 <> : For me, net positive for sure.
07-13 07:51 <> : GM
07-13 08:46 <> : Gm

07-13 08:55 <> : GM
07-13 09:43 <> : GM
07-13 13:48 <> : It has been a joy to browse the artworks in the FF1 retrospective, so much fantastic work and many new favorites. I look forward to launching the N=12 exhibition and kicking off FF 2.0 in a few hours! The future is bright for digital artwork and Feral File is modeling the way forward. Congratulations to the team at FF, and to the artists & curators that are part of their story 🎉
